Darkmoon Deck: Blockades will now shuffle more often based on Haste.

Fixed a bug causing Inevitable Demise to give more additional healing than intended.

Okay, but why?Comment by gunsotsuglad they reduced warlock healing..worese than priest tbh. couldnt' even damage them.Comment by 1505947This post was from a user who has deleted their account.Comment by DaichimaruWell, you know your spells are garbage, if blizzard has to increase their damage by 20%.
Anyways, increasing dps/healing for underperforming speccs is a good thing but some of the dmg increases should've been roled out earlier.Comment by hotaru251@blizz thinking 5% buffs for some of these will fix them... /laugh

still no answer to the issue of Horde farming warfront titanforged gear and having advantage going into mythic raids i see...Comment by orionaegis7Nerfing Beast Mastery? Seriously? Ranged Hunters should be buffed or just keep BM like it was before. MM (my spec in Legion) is already far below it's damage in Legion, near dead last in rankings now. BM is at median damage atm, so I switched to BM to be desirable in raids. Look, I know it's not a big nerf and that differences between most specs isn't that much, but what's the point of nerfing everything by 5%, having our best talent nerfed by a third and the main CD by a fifth when we're not a high ranked spec?Comment by sinangelus@blizz thinking 5% buffs for some of these will fix them... /laugh

Not sure if bait, or just simply ignorant. The alliance already got their guaranteed 370 item, and now they got the world boss, so clearly they have an advantage going into the mythic week.Comment by 1814092

We‘ve got these the last three weeks.

When my guild started raiding Uldir normal no one of the 30 people was below 342. and we are not a progress guild at all.

So without warfronts most of us already passed 350 with Uldir normal and the first bosses on hc. Rest of the time people were running m+ around +5 oder +6 - so not even high keys.

Yes the 370 item is nice - but it won’t carry you through mythic progress.

Try spending the time complaining for gaming - will give you a faster and more effective response.Comment by SykotikKyttenFeels good to be a Mut Rogue on this blessed day 🙏Comment by ejpaints Not sure if bait, or just simply ignorant.

First of all, the baseline is 340 in the scenario horde can farm, thus making m+ the better way to farm. Literally no reason at all to cry, just git gud and do 5+? Everything can wf/tf, the baseline however is 340/scaled with your ilvl up to 340 in world activites and 355 in m+, pvp can even drop 370+ depending on how good you are.
